Former Halfmoon Town Supervisor Melinda A. Wormuth was sentenced Monday to 10 months behind bars for stealing thousands of dollars from a campaign account in a series of thefts dating to 2009.

Wormuth's appearance in the Saratoga County courtroom of visiting Judge Matt Sypniewski comes just days after a federal judge in Albany sentenced her to a year and a day in federal prison for taking cash bribes in exchange for using her government position to lobby state and county officials. Wormuth will serve the sentences at the same time and while in federal custody.

She must report to prison on Jan. 26.

In the Saratoga County case, she agreed to pay $1,250 in restitution to her campaign.

The prison term handed down by U.S. District Judge Gary L. Sharpe will allow Wormuth to serve her sentence in a federal facility, running concurrently with the 10-month jail sentence she received Monday.

Since her arrest, Wormuth has said little about the case in public. But in front of U.S. District Court Judge Gary Sharpe last week, she apologized.

"I would like to say that, to my family, to my friends, to the constituents who I let down, I am deeply regretful and I regret my actions and missteps and any pain that it may have caused them," Wormuth said. "I stand before you today to accept my punishment and look forward to moving forward to the next chapter of my life and becoming an active, involved citizen when I'm done serving my sentence. Thank you."

The FBI's investigation of Wormuth and other political figures in Halfmoon began almost three years ago and was prompted by a series of articles in the Times Union that raised questions about Wormuth's private land deals and connections to developers.

The FBI's probe also examined a $50,000 payment that Wormuth and her husband received from Bruce Tanski, a Halfmoon builder and longtime financial supporter of the town Republican Committee.

Tanski said the $50,000 payment was a loan that the couple later repaid. Wormuth did not disclose the payment to other town officials or the public, and her husband, Larry, received the money at a time when Tanski had projects pending before the Town Board.

Tanski was not charged in connection with the loan, but was convicted of using his employees and business associates to illegally funnel campaign donations to Wormuth. The office of Attorney General Eric Schneiderman prosecuted the state case.

Tanski is Halfmoon's most active builder and a longtime financial supporter of the town Republican Committee and state Sen. Kathy Marchione, R-Halfmoon.

Wormuth pleaded guilty in August to a two-count indictment handed up in October 2013 charging her with extortion and lying to FBI agents.

She admitted taking $5,500 in bribes from an FBI informant and lying to FBI agents after being confronted in an Albany hotel room as she received $2,000 cash from an undercover agent. The theft from the campaign account was uncovered during the same investigation.
